| Abstract | Potamobates Champion, 1898 (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Gerridae) heretofore included 18
species distributed from southern Mexico to Peru. They display a distinct morphology, especially
regarding the projections of abdominal segment VIII. Specific identification and delimitation
are difficult, and the genus lacks a thorough revision and evaluation of inter- and
intraspecific variation. Here, we revise Potamobates, redescribe and/or illustrate known
species, and describe P. molanoi Floriano and Moreira, sp. nov. and Brailovskybates Floriano
and Moreira, gen. nov. The new genus is erected for P. thomasi Hungerford, 1937 and
is characterized by the following features: (1) abdomen elongated, longer than the mesothorax;
(2) abdominal spiracles positioned at the center of the segments; (3) male abdominal
segment VIII without projections; (4) male pygophore and proctiger not rotated in relation to
the longitudinal axis of the body; (5) female abdominal tergum VIII subequal in length and
width; (6) and posterior margin of female abdominal sternum VII not produced medially, with
a pair of lateral projections. | en_US |
